It's OK to do a number 1 in the garage or the back yard, but aren't you supposed to head into the bathroom before busting a stool?

Now that's funny, right there!
I don't understand this term "making them stronger"

It means the drunker we were getting the more booze we were pouring into our rum and cokes or rye and gingers. We started out about 1/3 booze and 2/3 mix and by the end of the night I'm pretty sure it was 2/3 booze and 1/3 mix. My garage turns into a gong show once the weather gets nice.

Sarcasm doesn't always make it through the 'net.
I didn't bother with a mixer or a middleman when I was drinkin. That is the basis for my comment.
Sounds like you were having a good time, though!

Ah, sorry for the confusion. Yeah, a good time was had by all. Warm weather, garage drinks and some Cuban cigars are a recipe for success.

I've never been one for drinking most stuff straight, I'm more of a mixed drink guy, but there's usually more booze than mix, so it's pretty close to drinking it straight anyway.

Oh man, I gotta come by there! Do you take in visitors?

BTW: I love those little red HF stools. They save my back when working in the garage or shop. They are cheap enough not to care if they break!

Alcohol induced brain fog is never good for trying to make sense of an odd part.
